Chiral Brønsted Acid Catalyzed Enantioselective aza-Friedel–Crafts Reaction of Cyclic α-Diaryl N-Acyl Imines with Indoles

Abstract: Asymmetric addition of indoles to cyclic α-diaryl-substituted N-acyl imines, which are generated in situ from 3-aryl 3-hydroxyisoindolinones, is described. The transformation proceeds smoothly with a broad range of indoles and isoindolinone alcohols using a SPINOL-derived chiral Brønsted acid catalyst to afford α-tetrasubstituted (3-indolyl)(diaryl)methanamines in excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 98% yield, up to >99:1 e.r.). The origin of stereochemical induction is supported by DFT calculatio… Show more

“…Among the established methods for the synthesis of chiral 3,3‐disubstituted isoindolinones, a particularly straightforward approach is the catalytic enantioselective addition of nucleophilic partners to cyclic N ‐carbonyl ketimines, which were generated in situ by dehydration of 3‐hydroxyisoindolinones (Scheme b). Followed this concept, the research groups of Zhou and Gredičak reported the asymmetric addition of indoles to 3‐hydroxyisoindolinone‐derived cyclic N‐ carbonyl ketimines. Hayashi and co‐workers developed a rhodium‐catalyzed asymmetric arylation of 3‐hydroxyisoindolinones by employing arylboroxines as nucleophiles.…”

“…You group and Gredicak group developed chiral SPAs‐catalyzed enantioselective aza ‐Friedel−Crafts reaction of cyclic diaryl N ‐acyl imines with indoles (Scheme 19). [ 23 ] Asymmetric addition of indoles to cyclic N ‐acyl imines, which are generated in situ from 3‐hydroxyisoindolinones, enabled by catalyst ( S ) ‐ SPA 11 afforded α‐tetrasubstituted (3‐indolyl)‐(diaryl)methanamines in excellent yields (up to 98%) and enantioselectivities (up to >98% ee).…”

“…(scheme 11) β-carbazoline compounds are important pharmacological active components in indole alkaloids, which widely exist in natural products and drugs [44,[52][53][54][55][56][57]. In 2017, Lin Xufeng's group further explored the aza Friedel Crafts reaction of indole and 1-trifluoromethyl-3,4-dihydro-β-carboline catalyzed by SPA [58], and obtained high yield (81%) and corresponding selectivity ( In 2017, the Gredicak Matija's group provided an aza Friedel Crafts reaction for the preparation of chiral αtetrasubstituted (3-indolyl) -(diaryl) methylamines [59]. Before that, there was no synthesis method with high corresponding selectivity [60][61].…”
